2. Introduction
• The mobile app development industry is
evolving at a break-neck speed. To survive and
thrive in this digital Darwinian era, you must
get acquainted with the changing mobile app
development trends.
3. • 2022 is the year that previously fringe
technologies will become more mainstream—
5G, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine
learning, and augmented reality (AR)/virtual
reality (VR) will all see increased adoption to
meet the demands of the modern consumer.
4. 5G technology
• While not yet mainstream, the adoption of 5G
is increasing and is on track to become the
new standard for mobile technology.
According to Statista, the global 5G
technology market is forecast to hit $620.72
billion by 2030. And demand will be high for
android app development services and iPhone
app development services
5. Internet of Things (IoT) App
Integration
• Internet of things (IoT) technology and
mobile-connected smart objects have been
around for years, but the market is growing
and IoT spending is projected to reach $1.1
trillion by 2023, according to Statista.
6. Apps For Foldable Devices
• It feels like a lifetime ago, but one of my first
mobile phones was a flip phone. Mobile
phones have clearly changed over the last
decade. Touch screens with one or no buttons
have taken over the market.
7. Wearable App Development
• Wearable technology has been trending
upward for years now as well. This isn’t
necessarily a breakthrough in the market.
We’ve seen smartwatches, trackers, and
fitness bands for a while now.
8. Mobile Commerce
• I can’t make a list of 2022 app trends without
mentioning mobile commerce. This trend has
been dominating 2020, 2021, and will
continue to thrive in 2022.
9. AR/VR
• The integration of AR/VR technology in mobile
apps is still an emerging trend, but it’s
important to watch. The global AR/VR market
reached $12 billion in 2020 and is expected to
reach $160 billion by 2023 (Statista).
